Summary

Chris and Pete will return on Thursday for a full debrief on the charity record destroying cyclothon - so make sure you meet us back here for that.


For todays show, we thought we'd remind ourselves of the before times, and show that was recorded after Pete and Chris had just that second returned from Korea, so decided a K-pop special was in order! (Pop = population.)


Do get in touch via [email protected] and the boy Broad (35 and loving life) will be here to answer all your questions on Thursday 1st May!


Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

0:55.2

And although things may have changed since then, a fair whack, I know for a fact the mad Airbnb

0:59.6

situation hasn't, and the availability of Octopus at 4am is very much a thing.

1:04.6

I love that Korean barbecue.

1:22.5

How do you find the time to travel so much in between doing all the other things that you do?
